- Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump pulled their children out of the Milton Gottesman Jewish Day School and moved them to Melvin J. Berman Hebrew Academy, according to the Jewish Telegraphic Agency.
- Three Milton parents told the outlet that some parents had complained that Kushner and Trump weren’t following the school’s COVID-19 protocols, which asked families to avoid large gatherings and to follow social-distancing guidelines.
- A longtime Milton parent with knowledge of the matter told Business Insider that the school tried to compromise with Kushner and Trump to give them certain allowances but that the talks didn’t work out and the couple chose to leave.
- A source close to the Kushner family told JTA that the family moved the kids to Berman because it offered more in-person schooling, not because of the COVID-19 rules.
- A White House spokeswoman slammed the JTA report in a statement to Business Insider, calling the outlet’s sources “idle gossips seeking press attention.”
